THE KET TRILOGY
PART ONE
Dear oh dear oh dear! Some
'other* magazlnea Just canl
stand the pace can they?
They've brought you adventure
garr>ea on their covers, but their
oMerlngs were damp squibs (le.
a rirework which has been pid-
dled on). Now CRASH, knowing
our readers are well tooto^d-up in
the bra Jn departrr^ent, thought
k^ng and hard on how to bring
you the pinnacle of adventuring.
And we've come up with a win-
ner! Incentive a all-time great
Ket Trilogy!!
s you may have
guessed there are
three parts to Ket,
one more challenging
than the other. So col-
led parts two and three on the
nejct two issues of CRASH! Each
can be played individually, but
enjoy them as a series tor maxi-
mum thrill power.
KET HISTORY
The lands ol Ket have tong been
split into (eudtrig groups and have
never known peace. Recently
vtcious attacks have come from
beyond the range of mountains in
the east — the Mountains of Ket.
Worried aboul the slate of the
land, the Lords ol Ket have joirved
together in an attempt to put a step
to these attadts.
Two people are the evil force
behind ihe ratds: Priest/King Vran
I Verusbel, feader of the cult of the
Mad *kfcnks. and their high priest-
ess Delphia, the most beautriuf
woman in existence. K islhcught
by the brdstha! the death of both
Vran and DeSphia woukj cause the
raids ID stop. A oourag^us volun-
leer is needed...
YOU, THE
ADVENTURER
Framed with a murder, you have
been sentenced to a grisly death
and are languishing in latl. It's the
eve of Ihe execution, when you are
suddenly bundled off to lace the
Lords of Ket! You guessedl They
give you a do or die choce — aixJ
you choose to do! Oeslroyirhg Vran
and Delphia Is your ultimate task,
and noft an easy one. you are
warned: both ara cunning and
devious...

up, which can be bUsted for more bul-

WHAT'S THE

The light gun Is a good Idea. But without

Either enough people splash out thie

ware houses to produce decent cnter-

At the momeni, f^ookk is the ofily one

■nd bad points of some of
th*m. Don't forget, you can
also sneak Ihrough between
the iatandf at the lofis of mosl
water cours«s, this saves time.
Sp«*dboat — The fastest water
vehilcte. If you hit a
bo3l'isi^rvd,^lag you'll sptn away
heavjiy. As i1 s a thin vehicle, il"s
posstbl* to sneak by the side of
other boats,
Jat-sJti — This is a very manoeu-
vrable vohide, but itie explosions
make It spin away. Try to keep
ciw of th« otl^er jet-siiis, as ihare
\m^ much space to overtake.
Inflatabt* — This is a bit tike the
speedboat but not as fast. If you
are hit by an expbston, keep
pressing down the accelerate but-
ton, yoy should carry on goiing in
th9 samQ <lirec{ion.
Hover Craft — This is vftfy slight-
ly sluggish, and lit rrovas fast^t
on the diagonals. Try to anticipate
when corners are coming up, and
turn the craft before you gel
there. That way, the drift on the
hover aafi wi'ti sie^r you around
the corner.
Buggy — Not as fast as the
Meteor (78 mph), but easier to
handle. As with all road vehicles,
tf you dont go over a jump
straight on you'll spin of! and
protsably have io attampi the
Jump aoaift.

word ghost! Anyway, here are
soma tips ofL each level from
Lawrence Pycock of Cox heath In
Kent
Lenll
• Take the left way. it's easier.
• When bts of nastias a|3paar in
ffOr>t of you, turn a/ound and QO
tuck so they are out ot screen.
Now go back to where they were,
and they will have disappeared!
• The b*Sl thing to do with the
end of level ghoul is f ira at him
before he comes into range. He
will Ihen walk into the beeum.
When he siaris finng at you,
move backwards and repeat the
process until he's destroyed.
• Don't use the iwo player option
a$ the game becomes harder.
Uvsl3
• Kill alt the worms. One of them
ho ids slimer, and you need him to
help kill the bats.
• With the end of level baddie,
make sure his eye is going diago-
nally, then fire at him toads, and
bingo 1
• From the beginning take the
first three brk^es on the left, then
swap over and take the two on

is getting too vicious, go down the
ladder on the left, and back up to
calm him down.
LSWIS
• Take the left hand rout«.
• Most of the mummies are in
their coffins, so watch out.
• tt you come to an area with
kiads of baddies, do the tridi<
explained on level t ,
• You can'1 shoot The baddies in
the lake.
• Positbn yourself out of range
of the claws and take them out
one at a time.
• The eye thing ies |technk:al
term} hatch into midget birds.
Lavei 7
• Move quickly to a position
where you can get all the spooks.
• Mind the biaster things in the

programming team who
brought you such delights as
Tank Command. Gu.nfighter.
Cerius, Heartbroken and
Kosmos (ooo. the skwibbly
gam«i) And being in the same
graphical style as these,
Superitid is bound to be a hit
with budgel fans too.
New Yof k 30fi9iAO is no
change from today: The streets
are littered with the dead bod-
ies of irrnocent citi2ens and
thugs as the street gangs cofi-
duct open warfare What is
needed is an old fashioned
superhero to sav* Ibed^ (and
do 3 bit of street cwMfring lo
clear up the gungy m«s!).

powers Tom goes around the 3
areas of each city, b«ating up
the b3d(iie*, guiding grannies
back 10 the rest home and sav-
ing girlies from the tops of
buil^dings, Being tuch a hard
nut, all Superi^fd has to do to
hill a villain is run Into htm with
his fist Once all the areas are
cleared, he must return to bat-
tle with the remaining gang
members, but this time they
are tougher, and it's night
lime*
Superkid is a fun little pme
with nicety coloured graphics
and jolly sound. The prctgram-
mers have catered for ali
tastes with the option of
choosing monochromi in dM'
terent colours too The trouble
is 1 hal you soon tire ol Just

The cause of so many foy-
tiicit deaths (due to the fast 'n'

the ball ides oft accordingly H
it fhes far enough the batter
dashes around the bases of

The presentation of Hardball

Jack The fyippef! This is
the first of the series, the itc-
ond being CocoflUl Capert,
and one of the better full price
games on the Spectrum in
19fi6. It hasn't lost ^y ptaya-
bility in the time, and fo< peo-
ple who haven't played it, the
puzzles wjil bring hours of fun.
Jacic is a naught Jtttle boy
who tJkBs notfiing belter than
to pop around the com^ to
the local poke station and
cayse a riot by shooting his
pea stVH>ter at the policemen
and tooting his horn at (he sta*

game ts to j^e as naughty at
possible (siiwuldn't be hard for
most of you! ).
Various objtcte can be
picked up amumf the town and
have drastic effects when
dropped in certain placet or
thrown ai something. A
naughtyometer, along the bot-
lOFn of the sQT^m^ nueasuree
how bad Jack hai beeit. Reach
100%jnd the game is com*

All sprite in Jack The

the game is jusi like walking
into your favourite comic. The
main play area Is nnonochrome
of varying hues on each
screen, plus iho bonus of
posters, lights, etc around the
town in glorious technicolour!
The way the game has been

As I remember, it was the first
racer to use the hill technique,
and the jumps have never been
repeated successfully since.
Rev that bike and take ri
through all the levels, over
dusty mountain trackSn tarmac
courses and desert trails. You
have to complete each track
within the sei lime limit to
progrns on to the next level.
Enduro Racer isn't the easi-

I <tirficuri to get past the third
level (birt that says more aboui

pect!] Gamepiay retains a big
challenge throughout — and
still k>oks and plays well after

bad! Great lun, graphically
impressive and varied, well
worth buying, especially on
